disney planning books

After buying many editions of the Unofficial Guide, I am moving on to
Passporter. Partly to have something new to read (the majority of the
unofficial guide changes year to year) and party because I kept
finding outdated (sometimes by years) info in the Unofficial guide.

Both are great for planning a trip though

According to allears.net. the build your own robot thing is still
there, in 'Innoventions East' - it's called the fantastic plastic
works.

ok - now I see where my confusion was. The really fun part is actually
where you design your own robot on a computer screen and get to run it
in a race. There's a pad on the floor and kids get to run in place on
the floor - the faster they run, the faster the robot runs the race.

However, the build your own plastic thingy to bring home might very
well be gone.

-- Steve i just read the forward of your book on line-- not to be
sappy, but it made me sappy-- your daughters' words were heart felt,
and connected me to so many things like my first trip with wife on
our honey moon-or when we took my parents for their very first
time-- watching my 2 daughters sit with my mom and seeing all 3 sets
of their eyes go wide and jaws open at the night parade.-- seeing my
dad giggle at all the things in it's a bugs life,or even in 2007
after a very difficult year - i had set our family trip to Disney as
my personal goal--- the day i walked past the castle and i realized
that i had gotten us all there, and my task was now coming to fruit,
and we could escape into a world where it was just our family, and
leave the preceding headaches a side -- i had to stop and fight back
my emotions. i am becoming a Disney fanatic with wife along side of
me- tell your daughter that i needed that stirring of the heart
strings-- thanks

Cripes, Rodney! Thanks! No one enjoys my posts here and now no one
will buy the book. Geez, with friends like you... (BTW, I didn't
comment on the "if you enjoy Steve's posts her...").

Steph says "Tell this sappy, Disney-loving bundle of manly tears that
he’s very welcome. ;-)".

She's been writing for some time and she does have that ability to
make grown men "sappy". She's done it to me more than once.

Hell, I'll sign it, give you a couple of bucks and treat you to lunch
- I'm just that kind of guy.
